About First Floor Flat
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
First Floor Flat is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Bristol (BS8 1DR). It has a recorded floor area of 46 m² (around 495 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in December 2010 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The latest certificate is from July 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since June 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £303,000 sits 63.8% above the 2008 sale of £185,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£374/sq ft) was about 30.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 46 m² it sits well below the postcode median (99 m² across 12 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
